Answers :

Boot into Safe Mode. If it does this successfully, you will need to revert to a previous restore point or uninstall whatever hardware or software caused the problem in the first place. If you cannot get it to boot into safe mode, you may have to resort to using system recovery (provided it isi enabled on your computer) or a reinstallation of XP (at a minimum).

You will need to either do a repair on your windows XP installation or a clean installation. If you choose to do a clean installation of windows XP then you may loose all your information on the PC. \015\012\015\012You will need the Windows XP CD in order to do the repair or the clean install. It is advised to take the system into a service repair center for them to do this for you or if you do not have the windows XP CD.\015\012\015\012Here are instructions from microsoft that may help you complete this process;\015\012\015\012http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316941\015\012\015\012Thanks\015\012C
